About This Book

L'auteur rassemble une suite d'essais qui retracent l'histoire du christianisme et le comparent à l'hébraïsme et à l'hellénisme, puis examinent la religion selon une physiologie darwinienne reliant l'organisme humain à son milieu. Il développe une théorie des signes et montre comment l'anthropomorphisme précède les pensées; analyse ensuite les affects religieux, le passage des passions au sentiment et la forme priante qui nourrit l'idée du salut; affirme enfin que les arts et la lecture des textes sacrés participent d'une discipline pour former la croyance comme un art de penser.
